MY 2005 DODGE NEON, BEGAN ACCELERATING ALL BY IT SELF. I WAS NOT GIVING IT GAS AND APPLYING THE BRAKES. I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY, IT KEPT GOING, I WENT THROUGH MY GARAGE DOOR. I TRIED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, BUT THE GARAGE DOOR SLOWED ME DOWN, AND I THEN PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I READ ON LINE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE. I TRIED TO CHANGE THE THROTTLE SENSOR, THAT DID NOT WORK. MY NEXT STEP IS TO CHANGE THE OXYGEN SENSOR. I HOPE THAT WORKS. I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR 1 WEEK NOW, BECAUSE I AM SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE IT AGAIN. IT HAPPENED ONE OTHER TIME PRIOR TO RUNNING INTO THE GARAGE. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE THERE SHOULD BE SOME TYPE OF RECALL AS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I WAS LUCKY IT WAS MY GARAGE DOOR INSTEAD OF A HUMAN BEING. IT COST ME 800 TO REPLACE THE GARAGE DOOR, AND THAT WAS A FRIEND GIVING ME AN INCREDIBLE DEAL. YOU CANNOT REPLACE A HUMAN LIFE. PLEASE HAVE DODGE NEON GIVE A SOLUTION TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, AND WARN PEOPLE ABOUT IT. ARIZONA DECEMBER 26TH, 2011. *TR
